Remove the old cable network name machine Vista

I have 4 computers on a home network (2 portable wireless, Windows 7 and Vista) and 2 desktops (also Windows 7-Vista) to Windows 7 computers, replacing Vista computers in the near future.  Until them, I always use the four computers.

I had a LOT of problems (unable to access printers and printers go offline) sharing printer and recently started having "Windows cannot access \\theWindows7newdesktopcomputer", those with printers attached - and I could / can not find a solution for this.  In desperation, I have reset the Linksys router e2500 manufactured back State initial and in the process gained a new network name (do not change).

My problem is that the old Vista computer wired to the router insists on the use of the old network name (the one that appears on the screen of the network and sharing Center).  The funny thing is that I put on Jack autour with him (nothing has changed on the router) I have now access to the Internet on the old Vista computer wired to the router, even if she seems to be using the former name of network.  So, how can I get the Vista computer to recognize the new network name and quit using the former name of network.  I spent all day on this problem and I am not farther than I was when I started working on the problem of this morning on the printer share.  I guess that the router works because these two computers are connected to the router, but it doesn't look good for me and it seems that it must be something I can change or correct.

Try to remove from the network and sharing Center by clicking on the Home icon next to network name and go to mergere or delete network locations. I guess you know what to do after that.

If it is used, then unplug your ethernet cable and try again.

  • adding new files or remove the old Windows Media Player files. (Vista)

    Since June 2010, I was not able to add new files or remove the old Windows Media Player files.  I can click on a new file and play using WMP or add to a playlist that is currently playing, but it does not recognize that it was added after as I close the program and re-open it.  Or I can delete the files that no longer exist on my computer but WMP always has them as my files.  When I click on add new media, it recognizes the right amount of files I would be adding, says to add them and then nothing is there.

    Your media library has probably been corrupted. To reset, follow the instructions for WMP 11 Vista at http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#medialibrary . Note the reset of the library will make you lose all the counts to play and possibly ratings too. Tim Baets

  • Clone vm a day and remove the old clone automatically

    I want to make a copy of a virtual machine every day. The process must be automated.

    It is easy to make a clone of a virtual machine using tasks Schedulet in vSphere 5, but the second time that the task runs, it fails because there is a clone with the name again. So I need a way to remove the old clone until the task Schedulte a new clone.

    Does anyone know how to remove a virtual machine automatically every day?

    A powercli script might be a good way to do it - you can use the remove-vm cmdlet, see this seal link for more information: http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/PowerCLI/PowerCLI41U1/html/Remove-VM.html

    Once you have a script that works, you can schedule it to run as needed. You may also have another script or expand the above script to create your clone for you.

    This isn't for Vista - after each update, Volume Shadow Copy service backup only the updated files. With Vista, is a differential backup, rather than a full backup and uninstalling files in Windows XP.  This safeguard mechanism is used to save disk space.

  • is it safe to remove the old windows updates

    Is it safe to remove the old updates in Windows Vista?

    Generally, no.

    You can use the program compcln.exe to remove the Service pack files and to perpetuate a service pack, as described here:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=2592038

    This program is in C:\Windows\System32

    You can uninstall the updates that have been replaced by a later update, but I don't know of an easy way to identify them. I don't think that in doing so, there is a great advantage.

    If you uninstall an update that is still necessary, he will be released the next time that WIndows Update is running.

    Hello

    If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to

    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
    cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

  • How can I remove the old Windows folder to a different drive?

    Original title: Old files Windows, Program Files, etc.

    I tried to use before Disk Cleanup and it worked, and I haven't run a complete installation.

    I'm having a problem now, this time, and I did a full install.  Disk Cleanup doesn't show any options to remove an old Windows as it did before.

    How can I remove the old Windows folder to a different drive?  I also try to remove the Program Files folder, as well as with an implementation since.

    It is showing an error message "I need to be in the Administrators group ~", and that TrustedInstaller is owner of the present.

    I have a question that "TrustedInstaller" has full authority on the file system, and 'Administrators' has limited access.

    I noticed that there are other three to make a total of four names of users who have all or nearly full access to the file system.

    Can it be fixed... it's pretty annoying to see this continue..., strictly through Windows Update.

    I look forward to your reply.

    Hi Morgan,.

    I suggest you check out the link to delete the Windows.old folder.

    What are the permissions?

    "Access denied" or other errors in the access to or work with files and folders in Windows

    a. go in > start > all programs > Accessories
    b. right click on prompt and then click Run as administrator.
    c. type the following command and press ENTER:

    takeown /f r d y

    d. to assign administrators group full control to the folder permissions, use the following syntax:

    ICACLS /grant administrators: F/t

    The /T parameter is added so that the operation is performed through all subdirectories and the files in this folder.

    For more information on the above commands, run these commands from a command prompt window.

    takeown /?
